Nothing can sabotage a marriage, a family, a friendship, or even a whole lifetime more effectively, more totally than anger denied, misplaced, unexpressed, or unresolved. But many of us have been taught that our anger is a shameful thing that should be buried away somewhere and never allowed to surface. It's time to get over that bad advice. It's time to make well-managed anger a positive force in our lives. It's time to admit our anger, understand it, and turn it to our advantage.
In God Knows We Get Angry, Priscilla Herbison tells you how and why!
Priscilla J. Herbison, author of God Knows We Get Angry, treats anger as a live energy-a natural gift for our self-protection and survival, for our dignity and empowerment to say what we stand for and what we stand against. Herbison received a Law Degree from the University of Minnesota and a Master's in Social Work from the University of Illinois. She currently serves as a professor at Saint Mary's University, where she is the program director of the Master of Arts Human Development program.
